What’s the only thing better than Chris Evans? If you said “Chris Evans doing a puppy interview,” then you were absolutely right.I mean, the man is practically a puppy in human form. (There’s even a Chris Evans as Golden Retrievers Twitter account, and it is every bit as amazing as the name would suggest.) And, of course, the Internet loves puppies. The Internet loves (most) men named Chris. Put the two together, and…well, you can just imagine the reactions.
Before we get to the reactions, we should probably talk about the interview itself:
But, honestly, does anything he said really matter? We love you, Chris, but we’re not here to hear you talk about your career or whatever. We’re here to see you get absolutely inundated with puppy kisses and meeeeeeeelt.
And I feel okay admitting to all of that because, honestly, I don’t think he cares half so much about his career as he cares about puppy kisses. So we’re all in good company. (And, honestly, could you blame him?)
So before we get to fans’ reactions over the interview, let’s talk about Chris‘s. Is there anything – and I mean anything – more endearing than his earnest enthusiasm as he waits for someone to bring in the puppies, already? No. There is not.
The first thirty seconds of the video or so are like watching someone get ready for a first date. And it only gets better once the puppies actually enter the room.
What Marvel villain would he play if he could? What is his favorite Toy Story movie? “Who cares?” There are puppies here, darn it! And he needs them to crawl all over him right now!
What are the odds he went home that day with a new puppy friend? Or, I don’t know, six? He was definitely tempted. And then, just when you thought it couldn’t get any sweeter (or cuter!), they brought in the older dogs.
I wasn’t the only one melting when I watched the interview. Twitter seemed to agree:
And, of course, while fans melted over the interview, they spared a thought to the pup awaiting Evans at home. And they were pretty sure they knew what he’d be coming home to.
RIP Chris.
